BEEFY RICE: Lean Beef, Brown Rice, Peas, Carrots, Olive Oil.
Nutrition Facts: Crude Protein not < 6%, Crude Fat not < 5%, Crude Fiber not > 1%, Moisture not >75%, Calories per 6 oz pouch: 230.
Beef is the ideal protein for working breeds such as German Shepherds, Great Danes, Sheepdogs, Bernese Mountain Dogs, Boxers, Bull Mastiffs, Dobermans, Rottweilers, Akita, Malamutes, Great Pyrenees, Borzoi Hounds and Pomeranians as well as all types of CATTLE DOGS (makes sense, huh?)
Lean ground USDA Choice Beef -A favorite of many dogs, this superior protein provides essential amino acids and minerals. Specifically found in high amounts are:
• B vitamins that: help with circulation and utilization of fatty acids (for healthy skin), boost the metabolism to help overweight dogs, fight anemia by producing red-blood cells.
• Potassium, Sodium and Magnesium maintain fluid balance and aid nerve function.
• Calcium and Phosphorous for teeth and bones, transfer of energy and muscle function
• Sulphur for healthy skin nails and hair to fight itchiness and allergies
• Iron critical for healthy red blood cells and to boost immune system
Brown Rice -A wholesome whole grain that provides the complex carbohydrates that your dog needs for energy, also contains:
• Choline is a fat emulsifier, a deficiency of which causes heart disease and neurological disorders
• B1, B3 , B6 vitamins for circulation, metabolism and processing of other nutrients, a lack can cause diarrhea, dermatitis and dementia as well as lowered immunity
• Vitamin E is a potent antioxidant that aids healing and retards aging and can prevent heart disease
• Manganese for collagen formation and to prevent impaired growth
• Chromium, which is sometimes called Glucose Tolerance Factor is needed to metabolize glucose
• Silicon to maintain flexible arteries and to heal wounds and ward off skin disorders.
• Potassium, Magnesium (see above)
Peas -Provides protein and a good source of:
• Vitamin A supports skeletal growth, immune system, vision and nerve function. A shortage of this can lead to skin lesions, liver damage, blindness, deafness, infection and night-hyperactivity
• Fiber aids in the management of cholesterol and blood sugar
• Potassium (see above)
Carrots- Offer antioxidants and phytochemicals that also provide Vitamin A and Carotenoids that fight cancer.
Olive Oil- A tasty “good” fat that has anti-inflammatory properties and is heart healthy. It also:
• Is found to fight cancer
• Is rich in polyphenols that function as anti-oxidants
• Protects the digestive tract
• Supports healthy bones
• Improves brain function

PORK, PASTA & POTATO: USDA ground pork, white potatoes, diced tomatoes in juice, elbow macaroni, celery, flour and water.
Nutrition Facts: Crude Protein not < 7%, Crude Fat not < 7%, Crude Fiber not > 1%, Moisture not >75%, Calories per 6 oz pouch: 230.
Pork was historically a staple in the diets of Standard, Miniature and Toy Poodles, as well as Pit Bulls, Manchester (Rat) Terriers, Pugs, Pekingese, Shar-peis, Shnauzers.
Diced USDA Choice Pork: Lean pork provides all 9 essential amino acids in an easily digestible form. It helps to build and repair tissues throughout the body and a small amount provides over half of the RDA for different nutrients a dog needs. It also is high in:
• Vitamin B1which helps in carbohydrate and protein digestion and a lack of which can cause central nervous system disorders and muscle weakness
• Vitamin B2 does much the same as B1 but also helps with cell growth and a lack of it can cause skin lesions, excess shedding and an oily coat.
• Vitamin B3 stimulates circulation, processes amino acids, and aids in HCL production. A deficiency of this can manifest itself in dermatitis, diarrhea and dementia.
• Vitamin B6 is essential for metabolism but more importantly a shortage can cause a host of problems: neurological disorders, anemia, heart disease, tooth decay, dermatitis, swollen tongue and lowered immunity.
• Vitamin B12 for red blood cells and assimilation of fats, carbs and proteins and to prevent fatigue and impaired neurological function.
• Magnesium is important for proper muscle and nerve function and if lacking can lead to convulsions and seizures.
• Iron, Phosphorous and Zinc (see above).
Whole White Potatoes: Contain multiple B vitamins plus:
• Potassium and natural sodium to maintain fluid balance for energy and cellular health.
• Iron for healthy red blood cells and cellular respiration.
• Magnesium is important for proper muscle and nerve function and if lacking can lead to convulsions and seizures.
• Vitamin C which helps with collagen formation and builds strong bones. It also prevents dental problems. Most dogs do not need a lot of vitamin C.
Pasta: Made from enriched flour and contains folate, thiamine, niacin and riboflavin.
• B vitamins that the body uses for turning food into energy.
• Iron for healthy red blood cells and cellular respiration
• Fiber for a healthy digestive tract and solid bowel movements.
Tomatoes: We use diced tomatoes in juice.
• Rich in Vitamin A, C and Folic Acid.
• High in Alpha-lipoic acid to help glucose to energy conversion.
• Choline Rich to help maintain Cellular membranes, assist in nerve health and absorption of fats.
• Excellent source of anti-oxidants and potassium.
Celery: We use chopped celery which has anti-inflammatory properties:
• 12 + Antioxidants are found in celery that protect against cellular damage and promote healthy organs and blood vessels
• Vitamin K is essential to blood clotting and protein production- a deficiency can lead to internal bleeding.
• Copper which is necessary in the production of melanin and linked to iron metabolism
• Calcium for healthy teeth and bones.
